Stephen O'Hanlon - Chess Knight

Post by Bronners »

hi i found a set of diagrames that show you how to make a chess set on google, here is the websight
http://amazinggrace-10.xanga.com/
just scroll down to about half way...

but im suck on the knight at steps 10-15. ive made the creases and everything i think correctly however i cant seem to get it to do what it says... and its not very clear... but ive done most of the other pieces so i dont want to give up on it...

thanks i really need your help :)

Those are crimps done two at the same time. If you have a hard time making them, you can always try to practice them first on a separate sheet of paper. You can then try making one side at a time or something similar.

Ah, that old one...

The knight is a complex model. It is not supposed to be easy ;-) Have you folded many complex models?
I once set up an origami PLC. But the business folded.
